Hi brewers! This year marked my 10th year of homebrewing and this forum was instrumental in those first years!
Couldn't find an answer via the googles, and I'm a better biology student than a chemistry student: is beer more prone to oxidation if racked warm or cold? Example: would it be better to cold crash a fermentor of beer before racking it to the keg or would racking warm beer to the keg be better from an oxygen absorption standpoint? Or is there no difference? Just something I pondered recently. Thanks for any insights!
